Home is Where the Heart Is...

Just a quickie today.. before all the chaos of decorating i started a little piece, and today before everything has to be packed away i decided to finish it and also join in with a few of my favorite challenges
Alter It Monthly 'Home Sweet Home'
Lots To Do 'Crowns or Hats'
Sunday Stamper 'Rhinestones'
This was Inspired.. ok practically copied from his Lordship Tim, courtesy of the tutorial on his blog the other day. Not sure if i will just add something to hang it by, or make it into something bigger.. I guess i'll decide that another time.
Right I'm actually sneaking away from the decorating today to go strawberry picking and then for a nice roast din dins at Tony's parents house... They also have some crates to lend me to box up the rest of me stash. o i best be off.. Don't forget to enter my candy.. you wont be disappointed if you like 'Shabby Chic' is all I'm saying!
